Sen. Cruz: We Should Not Rest Until We Have Done Everything in Our Power to Protect the Lives of Unborn Children

Calls for continued effort to defund Planned Parenthood

WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) tonight issued the following statement after S.1881, a bill to prohibit federal funding of Planned Parenthood, failed to reach the 60-vote threshold required for cloture:

"Last week, the Senate had an opportunity to stop the unconscionable use of taxpayer funds to murder unborn children. Instead, Republican leadership blocked a recorded vote on amendments to defund Planned Parenthood.

"Although the effort to reach cloture on a standalone bill failed tonight, this should not deter us in the fight to eliminate taxpayers' funds being used to bankroll the abortion industry and what appears to be the ongoing criminal organization of Planned Parenthood.

"I encourage my colleagues to continue to fight to defund this organization that places more value on the sale price of babies' body parts than it does on the sanctity of human life. We should not rest until we have done everything in our power to protect the life of unborn children. Ensuring no additional federal dollars go to the abortion industry or Planned Parenthood is a good place to start. This is why it is critical that we stand together to insist that not another dollar of our hard-earned money goes to a group profiting from the buying and selling of the body parts of babies."

Agreed, I’ve voted actually for both in online polls.

Walker has the record of fighting and winning against Democrats. We saw Madison Dems in fits of apoplexy and practically blind with rage over their inability to unseat that guy. Have we forgotten so soon? He does the one thing we ask of any Republican: he fights!

Maybe if you repeat it often enough like the Kid in AI, the blue fairy will appear and make him a real conservative.

Emotion much?

Clearly, you didn't get enough dose of Ted Cruz today.

Life, Marriage & Family

Without life, there is no liberty. And ensuring every child is born into a home with a loving family provides the best chance for that child to achieve anything. That is why Ted Cruz has been on the front lines defending life and standing up for marriage when it has come under assault from activist judges.

• Led the charge on behalf of 13 states to successfully defend, before the U.S. Supreme Court, a federal law that bans one form of late-term abortion, the Partial Birth Abortion Act.
• Advocated for an investigation into abortion practices in the U.S. to prevent the atrocities witnessed in Kermit Gosnell’s facility from ever happening again.
• Joined 18 states in successfully defending the New Hampshire parental-notification law before the U.S. Supreme Court.
• Successfully defended in federal court Texas’s Rider 8, which prohibits state funds for groups that provide abortions.
• Fought for the right of states to define marriage, without intrusion by unelected federal judges, by drafting the State Marriage Defense Act.
• Defended Texas’s marriage laws when a renegade state court attempted to grant a divorce to a same-sex couple who had obtained a civil union in Vermont.
• Authored legislation and a constitutional amendment in the Senate to prevent federal courts from further interfering with any state’s Constitutionally-protected authority to define marriage.

"The logical import of Obama’s vote against BAIPA [Born-Alive Infant Protection Act] is that he disagrees, i.e., once a baby has been targeted for abortion it thereafter has no inherent right to the food, comfort, and medical care provided to other babies born alive.

Indeed, during Illinois state senate deliberations on BAIPA, Obama stated that one of his objections was that the bill was “designed to burden the original decision of the woman and the physician to induce labor and perform an abortion.” Apparently, once the decision to abort has been made, a child is doomed even if born alive."

[right way right]

Walker was so dynamic on Fox tonight.
He should have walked out on Meghan “I’m not going to talk about Trump” Kelly.
I would have. Trump Trump Trump!

Mitch McConnell probably received some blood money from Planned Genocide.

[Norm Lenhart]

It is stunning the depths people will debase themselves in public on a conservative website to avoid supporting the most conservative guy in the race.

Complete mental illness.

Yup, and you are arguing with the worst of them.

Every time he/she posts, she/he/it loses a little bit more of any credibility she/he/it had.

[Norm Lenhart]

Complete mental illness on display. repetitive behavior should be checked by a professional.

[Norm Lenhart]

No the worst of them just denied the founders over foreign entanglements on another thread and somehow twisted “Whatever gets you through the night” over a comment about email as being mother/son incest on my part.
